Good Thread joodles, i only have a few types at the moment - so would also be interested in what the jig gurus say, personally the best by far has been the Dimiki, i heard the Haoli jigs go well.

I'm finding I'm moving away from the squid skirts due to less tangling of assist hooks with the split ring on the jig and better jig action.

 Caprice and Lambles

 Caprice and Lambles 100-130g

Love em. Caprice when theres not much drift, I find there slow flutter down carries away from the boat to far when a drift is on. Lambles are Dhu killers.
